£0FREE UK Delivery on this lamp.
An original 1950’s photography lamp by Smith-Victor. This lamps is a rare find as the lamp head and stand are completely original and in excellent condition for their age. We bought this lamp form a dealer in the US and had it sent over, we loved it that much. The stand offers lots of flexibility over height adjustment and the head swivels and tilts to get the exact lighting you are looking for. The bulb is a standard fitting so you can choose a squirrel cage, LED etc for the look and colour you want. The light is switched on and off at the head with a simple push switch on the lamp holder.
Simply plug in and add very stylish lighting to any room. We adore the overall look and uniqueness of what these lamps have been used for and seen – who knows what subject matter they have photographed!

Read moreOriginal Mid Century Smith-Victor (USA) Photography Lamps (Pair)
£0FREE Delivery on these lamps. Remote and rural areas will incur a charge.
An original pair of rare Smith-Victor photography lamps. These lamps dates form around the 1950’s to 1960’s and were produced in the USA by world renowned manufacturers Smith-Victor. We took the shades and stands and gave them new swivel and tilt adjustable heads. We then added a vintage style lamp holder with switch on the holder gave them a full re-wire with a complementary grey fabric retro style cable (a full 3 metres for each lamp). These updates all match the mid Century style of the lamps but brings them bang up to date.
The shades can be positioned to up-light or tilt and the height of the lamps can be adjusted from a height of 123cm, right up to 210cm! Simply plug in and add very stylish lighting to any room. They can be used as a pair, either side of a sofa or feature wall or headboard etc. Or obviously they can be split up and used in different rooms but we wanted to keep them as a pair for the lucky new owner to decide how they would use them!
There are some signs of wear and a few ‘dings’ to the shades but they are still spherical with exceptional paintwork and original labels still fully in tact. The stands are in excellent condition with only aged patina that we wanted to keep rather than fully polish to look like new. We adore the overall look and uniqueness of what we have created! Ever seen anything like these in any other homes you have visited?

Dimensions: 123-210cm High, 55cm Base width (as photographed – can be made wider or narrower), 26.5cm Shades diameter.
